Back then there was little need for concern over automotive air pollution. The reason for this decline is the pollution-combatting mechanisms developed by the auto industry. Items like the positive crankcase venti- lation system introduced in 1963 and the gasoline vapor burning system new on 1971 models have already achieved great reductions in pollution levels. Indicating the effective- ness of the new system, 84 percent of present-day pol- lution from cars comes from older cars not equipped with the latest pollution devices, Today, total amount of pollutants from cars is about 78 million tons. By 1980, the annual figure will be about 25 million tens, approximat- ing pre-World War II levels, Maintenance Important While current and impend- Mg anti-pollution devices will be chiefly responsible for the reduction, much of the improvement in cleaner air will continue to. depend on conscientious maintenance, For example, a University of Michigan study reveals that at idle an average G5 percent reduction in pollu- tion levels can be achieved by a tune-up. The next time you are faced with a burned out fuse in yqur home or your car, don't fix things up with a heavier rated fuse. Refuse to re-fuse until you have found out what made the old fuse blow. A blown fuse, like a fever, tells you something is wrong. Find out What. For example, suppose your turn signals stop working, due to a blown fuse. You may put in a new one, and you are back in business . . for a little while. After a couple of repeat performances, you decide to ask your mechanic, Tzic feu_ Attention to anti-pollu- tion devices al80 is Impor- tant, A clogged PCV -wave can increase hydrocarbon emissions ,considerably, A dirty air cleaner can lead to. a drastic jump in carbon monoxide emissions by ini.7 balancing the correct fuel/ air mixture. To help air pollution levels on their way down, an an- nual tune-up and .servicing of antipollution compenents according to owners manual recommendations is vital. perience, like an electri- cian's, tells him to look for overload on a wire. In the case of your turn signals, the bare wire would touch metal only when your car jiggled a certain way. That is when sparks would fly. Your mechanic finds and fixes the bare wire, and your problem is corrected fqr good, Merely replacing the fuse is an invitation to a fire, be- cause a hot wire touching metal heats up like the coils in a cigarette lighter. If this doesn't start things burn- ing, the sparks probably will. POLLUTION. FIGHTERS - Sometimes the difference between a polluting car and a clean one can rest in a few simple anti inex- pensive-to-replace parts. This young car care conscious lady is not smoking a pipe, but displaying a PCV valve. The valve should be checked for efficient operation as part of every tune-up. She reminds motorists that air filters (the large round ring), oil fil- ters and gasoline filters (the white object on the oil filter) are also vital for clean, trouble-free, engine operation and atonid he replaced at regularly scheduled intervals. t • Gera SEAFORTH Phone 527-1010 Open till 9 p.m. • GODERICH Phone 524-6106 44 Newgate St. d's Datsun Correct Trouble Before Changing Burned Out Fuse IIIVICC TO WONIITT1 Nv1-ito1111111N1141... and 1417%.'11 loom from DE DE BENSON..• .a woman who does EgigginglitagangingpMEAMEAMAfflogniiantiti chanics could perform a tune-up for peppier perform- ance but it would be at the sacrifice of low emissions, Be happy that your mechanic is giving you the air-clean air. Dear De De: What is getting into our younger generation? My husband and .1 are profes- sional people. Both my daughters are in college, pre- paring for careers in law and medicine respectively. But my son, Alex, who is soon to graduate high school, wants to be an auto mechanic. If he is going to follow through with his foolishness, it will disgrace the family. How can I convince him to go to col- lege and study for a real career? WORRIED MOTHER, Darien, Conn. DEAR WORRIED: What Alex is choosing for himself is a real career one that can be enormously sat- isfying and remunerative. Numerous top executives in the • automotive industry started as mechanics, Skilled mechanics can and do earn more than many profession- al people, But even if the pay weren't potentially good, job satisfaction is perhaps the most important factor of a happy life. If. Alex would be happier working with a wrench than with a pencil, encourage him to pursue the mechanic's career, There are many fine schools operated by the auto repair industry to help him become a good mechanic. To paraphrase a currently popular bumper sticker: If you don't like me- chanics, next time your car breaks down, call a doctor. * * Dear De De: Your column always con- tains the advice to take your automobile service problem to your favorite mechanic. Well, my mechanic Sid is no longer my favorite, When we brought our new car in for a tune-up, we were disturbed that when we got it back it didn't seem as peppy as we expected and it didn't idle smoothly. When I pointed this out to Sid, he said he had tuned', the earitd manufac- turer's recommendation and that the job was done right. Do you call this satisfactory service? JUST WONDERING, Salinas, Kansas DEAR JUST: From what you've written, it seems that Sid was really doing his job in helping the air of Salinas to be just a little cleaner. In new-model cars like yours, the sophisti- cated anti-pollution devices require careful and exact ad- justments. This may mean a minor sacrifice in perform- ance and a slightly rougher idle, True, Sid or other me- * Dear De De: Help me settle an. argu- ment with my fiance, Re- cently while at a shopping center another driver backed into my car. The damage was only slight and the other . driver paid me $40 cash to have it fixed after I got an estimate on repairs. Since it was only a minor ding and I could use the money, I de- cided to keep the cash and let the damage go.:My fiance said I was wrong and should have it fixed. What do you think? BETH P. London, Ontario DEAR BETH: I agree with your fiance. Aside from any moral con- sideration, what looks like a minor ding now could ,well develop into a rusty hole in your, car, If that happens the value of your car at trade-in could decrease a lot more than the $40 you received. The money you save could come in handy when you marry that wise fiance of yours, Undeniably, the original glass-belted tires introduced on new cars in 1969-built with 2-ply cord body and 2 glass belts-upped potential mileage by 50 to 100%. Even more important, they brou- ght a new degree of vehicle stability, on-track steering, improved braking. Since then, newer materials and advanced technology have stepped up their high-speed performance.
